Alternate translation: “Small mammals that living among rocks”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

בֵּיתָֽ⁠ם

homes,their

Here, Agur refers to the places where Rock badgers live as if those places were houses like humans live in. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “their dwelling places” or “their holes”
